Xbox Live downloads for sale on Amazon

Click, pay, print, download, play

If you’re too lazy to walk to the shops to buy your brother a videogame giftcard for his birthday, then the process is now as easy as logging onto Amazon and printing out a code.

The online retailer has begun selling codes online that then allow gamers to download content through Xbox Live.

Around arcade 100 titles are currently available, including Uno, 1942: Joint Strike and Age of Booty.

Initially only running as a beta service at Amzon.com, it also allows gamers to buy Microsoft Points and Live subscriptions cards. ®
